Удагамандалам и сокращенно Udhagai или Ути это город в индийском штате Тамилнад. Он находится в 80 км к северу от Коимбатoра и является столицей района Nilgiris. На холме Нилгири построена англичанами железная дорога, которая является основной достопримечательностью этих мест.
Область Тода попала под власть Ост-Индской компании в конце 18-го века. Экономика края основана на туризме и сельском хозяйстве, наряду с производством лекарственных средств и фотопленку. Город связан по Нилгири Гхате дорог и Нилгири горной железной дороге. Его природная красота привлекает туристов и он является популярным местом летнего отдыха. По состоянию на 2011 год, город имел население 88,430. В Udhagamandalam первоначально поселились племена Тода и вместе с другими племенами, сосуществовали за счет торговли. Основные племена этой области Тода, Кота, Badaga и Kurumba. Старый Тамил Silappadikaram утверждает, что Chera король Senguttuvan, который управлял во время 2-го века нашей эры, на его пути на Гималаи остался в Нилгири и стал свидетелем танца Kannadigas.
В первые письменное упоминание о Нилгире появляется в записи, принадлежащей Hoysala царя Vishnuvardhana датированной 1117 нашей эры. Народ Тода занимался выращиванием буйволов для сельскохозяйственной деятельности. В Нилгире правили различные династии, такие как Satavahanas, Cheras, Gangas, Кадамбов, Rashtrakutas, Чола, Hoysalas, Виджаянагара и раджа Ummattur (от имени Wodeyars из Mysuru). Типу Султан захватил Нилгири в восемнадцатом веке и расширил границы путем построения укрытий в пещерах. Британская Ост-Индской компания вступила во владения землями в рамках соглашения с султаном Типу Srirangapatnam в 1799 году.
В 1818, J. C. Whish и Н. В. Kindersley, помощники Джона Салливана, а затем управляющий Коимбатура посетил Ути. Салливан расположились лагерем в Dimbhatti, к северу от Котагири в январе 1819 года и был очарован красотой этого места. Он писал Томас Манро, "... место напоминает Швейцарию, более чем любая другая страна Европы ... холмы покрыты красивыми лесами и весной с них струится проточная вода в каждой долине." Тогда Салливан в мае 1819 года, начал строить свой загородный дом на Dimbhatti. Он также начал работу по строительству железной дороги из Sirumugai до Dimbhatti. Дорога была завершена в мае 1823 года и проложена далее до Кунур в 1830-32 годах.
Ути служил летней столицей при президентстве Мадраса; он был превращен британскими чиновниками во время колонизации в популярный летний курорт. Солдат отправляли в соседний Веллингтон для оздоровления. Веллингтон является местом расположения полка Мадрас индийской армии. После обретения независимости он превратился в популярный горный курорт.
